ABSTRACT

Illegal streaming videos often undergo transformations such as re-encoding, resolution conversion, aspect ratio changes, brightness variation, rotation, and flipping. They may also include non-content regions such as black borders, subtitles, logos, and advertisements during screen recording or retransmission. These factors reduce the consistency of feature vectors extracted from the same content and degrade video identification performance. This paper proposes an input video normalization method based on valid regions and frames for illegal streaming video identification. The proposed method consists of valid region detection, aspect-ratio-preserving resolution normalization, frame refinement based on brightness and structural information, rotation candidate-based orientation correction, and valid frame selection. These steps reduce unnecessary regions and unstable frames, enabling more consistent feature representations in the subsequent feature extraction process. Experimental results using query videos with various distortions show that the proposed method improves identification accuracy compared with the non-normalized condition. It also reduces unnecessary feature vectors while maintaining stable identification performance.
